FLAVOURS OF ARABIA As visitors would expect, Middle Eastern cuisine is well represented in Dubai. Many restaurants offer dishes true to their Lebanese, Egyptian and Iranian origins. Staples include: hummous, an Arabic dip made of cooked chickpeas blended with sesame seeds, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and garlic; moutabel, a spicy smoked aubergine dip popular in Syria, Lebanon and Palestine; fattoush, a salad made from toasted or fried pieces of pita bread and mixed with lettuce, cucumber, onion and other vegetables; tabbouleh, another type of salad made from finely chopped parsley and mint mixed


with onion and tomato; sambusek, small triangular pastry pies filled with cheese, meat or spinach; and ouzi, a baked lamb and spiced rice dish. For an authentic Emirati food experience, visitors should take a trip to the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding (visit cultures.ae). Located in Bastakiya in Old Dubai, the centre gives visitors an opportunity to taste the country’s time-honoured culinary dishes prepared in the traditional Bedouin way, while at the same time learn about Emirati life. Visitors can also sample these dishes and more in some of Dubai’s top-class Arabic dining venues.
